Working between traditional handcraft and contemporary processes, he focus' on natural materials to create bold, minimal pieces that are grounded, quiet, and enduring.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRaised in Western Australia and now living and working on Wurundjeri land (Naarm\/Melbourne, Australia), Curtis' work is informed by personal and sentimental histories. Working predominantly with jarrah (a timber native to Curtis' birth area), which becomes a conduit for memories, it carries a strong but intimate presence through its weight, warmth, and grain. Each piece is approached not just as an object but also as a character, shaped by restraint, proportion, and touch. His designs draw subtle references from the natural world and classical furniture archetypes, distilled into reduced forms that feel both familiar and considered with emphasis placed on material honesty, surface, and shadow.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e2AM CLOSE: 2am close is the material practice of Taylor Brooks, a practitioner based in Naarm\/Melbourne. Her work centres on making as a mode of thinking, feeling,and relating, exploring principles of embodiment, gesture and how objects negotiate between interior and exterior worlds. Drawing on backgrounds in fashion and industrial design, Taylor’s practice moves between analogue and digital processes to investigate how contemporary manufacturing technologies might preserve, rather than diminish, the emotional and tactile qualities embedded within acts of making. Objects emerge through an ongoing dialogue between phenomenology, material experimentation and craft practice. Working predominantly with cast metals, alongside textiles, timber and knitwear, her practice invites slower meditative forms of participation.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e —\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/craft.org.au\/whats-on\/all-events\/visionaries-2026\/\"\u003eVISIONARIES 2026 \u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"header\" id=\"header\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-v-396eebe8=\"\" class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e12 November 2026 - 6 February 2027\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.craft.org.au\/collections\/visionaries-2026\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e View the exhibition collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCraft Victoria presents \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eVisionaries 2026, \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecurated by Tali Roth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eVisionaries\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is Craft’s flagship exhibition series, designed to create meaningful pathways between Australia’s exceptional makers and the wider worlds of design, culture and everyday life.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTali Roth is the founder and creative director of the award-winning Studio Tali Roth.
